Identifying Changing-Look AGN Transitions in Light Curve Data with the Zwicky Transient Facility

Margaret E. Verrico, K. Decker French, Vivienne F. Baldassare +10

Changing-Look AGN (CL-AGN) are AGN which transition between Seyfert types, challenging AGN unification models. Most CL-AGN have been identified via repeat spectroscopy, making it d…

Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei in SDSS-V: Host-Galaxy Properties and Black-Hole Scaling Relations

Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous +23

Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) exhibit dramatic spectral variability on unexpectedly short timescales, challenging standard accretion flow models. Despite growing s…

Using Faded Changing-Look Quasars to Unveil the Spectral Energy Distribution Evolution of Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei

Olivier Gilbert, John J. Ruan, Laura Duffy +7

The structure of accretion flows in low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN) at low Eddington ratios (~10^-2 to 10^-3) are poorly-understood, and can be probed using the spectra…

Sleeping Giants Arise: Monitoring the Return of Three Changing-Look Quasars to Their High States

Laura Duffy, Michael Eracleous, John J. Ruan +2

Changing-look quasars challenge many models of the quasar central engine. Their extreme variability in both the continuum and broad emission-line fluxes on timescales on the order…

A Detailed Look at a Trio of Changing-Look Quasars: Spectral Energy Distributions and the Dust Extinction Test

Laura Duffy, Michael Eracleous, Jessie C. Runnoe +5

Changing-look quasars exhibit dramatic variability in broad emission-line fluxes on short timescales. This behavior is challenging to many models of the quasar broad line region, d…

The IRX-Beta Relation in kpc-sized Star Forming Regions in Nearby Galaxies

Laura Duffy, Mallory Molina, Michael Eracleous +7

The effect of dust attenuation on a galaxy's light depends on a number of physical properties, such as geometry and dust composition, both of which can vary across the faces of gal…

The New Swift/UVOT+MaNGA (SwiM) Value-added Catalog

M. Molina, L. Duffy, M. Eracleous +6

We present the the new Swift/UVOT+MaNGA (SwiM) catalog (SwiM_v4.1). SwiM_v4.1 is designed to study star-formation and dust attenuation within nearby galaxies given the unique overl…
